Two haraellas

Looks like both of my haraellas are establishing well on their mounts.

The larger one finished blooming and I was glad to see couple of green tips on the roots and activated spindly old spikes. It had some moss around the roots at first but I noticed signs of rot under moss, so I took it off and just water it twice a day.






The smaller one is on the large piece of driftwood with couple phal. seedlings. All the roots have active growth points and just recently it started a new leaf.

Haraella retrocalla II

Haraella retrocalla II is a little piece of plant that came off the main Haraella retrocalla when I unwrapped it on arrival. The little one was already featured in the post about my driftwood mounting with multiple plants, but it is almost not visible on the picture, so I decided to log it in separately so I could better monitor its progress(or decline).
Haraella retrocalla II has nice tiny but healthy roots:



After couple days on the mount I noticed that plants are drying out too fast especially during the night - heat is working, kitchen is not used = drier air.
I covered roots with cozy blanket of sphagnum, it feels better now:



Hope she will grow, and mature, and will bloom for me some time soon...

Mounted mini phals

Here is yet one more mounting I just created. This log of a driftwood came from the pet store too. I put several small mini-phals and one haraella baby on it. There are 4 plants in total on the mount, from left to rght they are: Phalaenopsis gibbosa seedling, Phalaenopsis parishii seedling, small seedling of Haraella retrocalla and last but not least - blooming sized Phalaenopsis lobbii with two spikes.
I put small dab of sphagnum moss under each plant. Hopefully they will be ok. I killed one Phal lobbii potted into sphagnum, this one I decided to mount.



Small Haraella retrocalla baby came off the large one when I potted it on arrival. I will label it Haraella retrocalla II.
